Disclaimer:The tricks added here is no work of
fiction. If you wish to score well, you need to apply it in practice too. The
magic formula doesn’t include moving of magic wand but to pick the weaponry
called books and start studying.

1. Two in One

Most
students take up science after their 10th on the pretext of joining streams
related to it. It is the opening pass towards one’s engineering, architecture,
and doctor’s dream. However, keeping this in purview and taking 12th lightly
will only cost you later. The best way is to not consider boards and entrance
different from one another but as shaft and boat.

Having
said that the syllabus for 12th science and entrance are almost similar in
addition to a few topics from Std 11th. So if you are well versed with your
11th and 12th syllabus, you have won half the battle. First, prepare well for
your Std 11th and Std 12th without leaving any topics. If you are well abreast
with the entire syllabus then it will not only help score during board exams
but also aid smoothen the stress during the entrance.

2. Old is Gold

Past
carries the secret to the future. The key is to find the perfect lock and
unlock your doors to success. This falls true for board exams too. Previous
year question papers are gold mines that aids in gaining high percentile. And
thus, utilizing this treasure is the ultimate way of scoring a good percentage.
Previous year question paper renders one a sneak peek into the paper pattern as
well as acquaint to the format of questions asked. Herein you can know the top
3 things:

a. The pattern of questions askedb. Which topics were given more weightage?c. How many times was any particular question/s repeated?d. How soon can you complete the paper during exams?

Once you have caught the pulse of the above questions, you will yourself find the stress related boards melting down to a great extent.

3. Bifurcate your topic

Long
answers are somewhat magical. They can draw sleep into your eyes and fall you
asleep. But they are necessary if you want to add a few extra marks to your
kitty. So, here’s our magic formula or rather you can call it smart formula to
make learning long answers easy. Each long answer has its roots in smaller
ones. Thus, before jumping straight to brief answers, start with one line
answers; fill in the blanks and short answers. Club them together, format it
well and it will be easy to remember your long answer.

Another formula includes – bifurcating them under different headings. For example – Explain the functioning of the heart with a diagram. Herein, you can start with a brief explanation and later move on to explain each part of the heart in 3 to 4 lines. Reading them this way will aid retain the information and if you have understood the very core you can go on to write in your own words.

4. Study using examples

The
human mind is a crazy monkey. It will keep jumping from one branch to another
until it finds something which can catch its curiosity. Similar manner,
examples help make any topic interesting and attracting the attention of
students. It helps one relate to the examples as it helps gain an emotional
connection to it. And thus, if you wish to retain what you study better back it
with examples. Because even if you forget the answer, the example will help you
once again connect the loop and get your pen running on the paper.

5. Study early in the morning and revise just before going to bed

A
lot of us find burning the night oil to be the best way for gaining high
scores. However, that is only going to make you feel lethargic the next day
morning. While drinking coffee and tea in between can help to shoo away your
sleep, it will do no better for your studies. Coffee tends to release Cortisol
viz. a stress hormone in the blood thereby kicking your energy levels high.
This stress will later make you lethargic and deprived of sleep as well as the
brain weaker to retain information.

You
need to be healthy both mentally as well as physically to gain good scores in
your exams. Thus, last but not least, our final magic trick is wake up early in
the morning to learn and revise at night just before falling asleep.

Reason: A night sleep clears your system off toxins.
Thus, your brain is much equipped to take in information. Additionally, as
people hardly wake up early these days, you can get some quiet time to study
without any noise except the sweet chirping of birds. As per research, people
tend to remember things which they have heard or seen before sleep. Hence, if
you hear a horror story or watch snakes on TV before going to sleep you find
them visiting your dream and remaining in your head even in the morning.

So,
revise your answers in your mind, uttering them as prayers and have your prayer
answer when you retain back all the information in the morning without
forgetting.
